PART I - - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Item 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The response to Part I, Item 1 is submitted as a separate section of
this report.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Empi, Inc.'s (the "Company") total sales for the 1995 first quarter totaled
$16.5 million compared to first quarter 1994 sales of $14.4 million, an
increase of 15 percent. Sales from the Company's core rehabilitation
business of TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) devices,
NMES (Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation) devices and related accessories
totaled $11.8 million, a 7 percent increase relative to the same period
sales of $11.0 million in 1994. Sales from the Company's non-core products
of Innova PFS-REGISTRATION MARK- (pelvic floor stimulator),
DUPEL-REGISTRATION MARK- non-invasive drug delivery system, Advanced Dynamic
ROM-TM- and Ultraflex-REGISTRATION MARK- dynamic splints, sEMG (surface
electromyography biofeedback) and other miscellaneous products increased 38
percent and totaled $4.7 million compared to $3.4 million in the first
quarter of 1994. The Company recorded an overall sales volume/mix increase
of 17.9 percent and a slight decrease in sales pricing of 2.9 percent. The
most significant volume increase for all products was in the Company's
DUPEL noninvasive drug delivery system, which increased 40 percent when
compared to first quarter DUPEL sales in 1994. All other major product
groups showed a slight to moderate increase in volume. International sales
for the first quarter, as a percentage of total sales, were 8.3 percent and
6.7 percent for 1995 and 1994, respectively.
While the Company is pleased with the financial results in the first
quarter, it continues to be concerned with various market and insurance
reimbursement factors affecting its core rehabilitation business which
could impact revenues in future quarters.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 1995 was 72.6 percent compared to
75.1 percent for the first quarter of 1994. The 2.5 percentage point
decrease in margin is due primarily to higher production costs (inflation
and mix), higher inventory provisions, and an increase in distribution
costs associated with higher unit sales. The Company anticipates gross
profit, as a percentage of sales, to remain near its current level due to
price sensitivity and product mix.
Selling, general and administrative expenses during the first quarter
combined were of $8.5 million in 1995 and $7.9 million in 1994. Stated as
a percentage of sales SG&A expenses were 51 percent and 55 percent for 1995
and 1994, respectively. The increase in expenses was due primarily to
higher commissions (driven by higher sales), provisions to cover estimated
costs associated with closing down the Company's Canadian office and a
provision for 1995 incentive pay.
Research and development costs, as a percentage of sales, were 5.1 percent
and 5.3 percent during the first quarter of 1995 and 1994, respectively.
Stated in dollars, research and development expenses were $838,000 in 1995
compared to $756,000 in 1994, an increase of $82,000 or 10.8 percent. The
increase in research and development expenses was driven by tooling costs
relating to the Company's Advance Dynamic ROM splint project and by higher
payroll costs associated with additional staffing. The additional staff
were hired to build up the quality assurance group to support new product
developments including the Advanced Dynamic ROM splints, the Innova EMG
system, and other products which are still in development.

FORM 10 - Q - - PART I - ITEM 2 (Continued)
Interest income for the first quarter of 1995 was $160,000 compared to
$50,000 in first quarter of 1994. The increase in interest income is
attributable to the Company's improved cash position which has allowed the
Company to increase its investments in interest-bearing securities.
Interest expense was $28,000 and $46,000 for the first quarter of 1995 and
1994, respectively. The majority of interest expense is due to an interest-
bearing note issued to finance the Company's acquisition of Nortech in
1992.
Net income for the first quarter of 1995 was $1.7 million compared to $1.3
million for the first quarter of 1994, an increase of $.4 million. The
primary reasons for the 33 percent improvement in net income were the 15
percent growth in sales and higher interest income combined with a lower
growth rate in operating expenses of 8 percent, which was partially offset
by a higher growth rate of 26 percent in cost of sales. The effective tax
rate for the first quarter of 1995 was 39 percent compared to 40 percent in
first quarter of 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
The Company had a very sound and strong financial position at the end of
the first quarter of 1995. Working capital currently stands at $34.7
million, an increase of $.4 million compared to year end 1994.
The Company has currently not borrowed against its $7 million line of
credit. The Company believes its cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, together with cash flows from operations and the line of
credit, will be sufficient to meet the Company's anticipated working
capital and capital outlay requirements.
